RED LIGHT PHOTO ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM
APEC TECHNOLOGIES

carried unanimously.
Mayor Cafagna opened the public hearing. On September 25, 2001, Council gave
authorization to staff to implement a new red light photo enforcement program. Staff had
recommended approval of a contract with APAC Technologies for a three year initial
period, extendable over two additional years. Council requested that a shorter initial term
be developed. Limited availability of counsel for both parties and difficulties in
development of suitable payment alternatives has prevented completion of the requested
contract changes within the allowed time. Staff is therefore recommending this item be
continued to October 30, 2001.

Ordinance of the City of Poway, California, Amending Chapter 10.32.010 of the Poway
Municipal Code Establishing a New 40 MPH Speed Limit on Danielson Street Between
Community Road and Scripps Poway Parkway." Staff report by City Manager Bowersox.
Danielson Street is an industrial collector street within the South Poway Industrial Park.
The industrial park has been growing rapidly over the last ten years. With this growth,

traffic enforcement in the area by the Sheriff's Department. An engineering and traffic
survey was completed as required by Sections 22357 and 22358 of the California Vehicle
Code.

reading and continue the public hearing to October 23, 2001 for second reading and
adoption. Motion carried unanimously.
